Hi.

I was having a discussion with people at work about the Postgres object-relational syntax. The question came up: does this follow an SQL standard? Or is it rather a Postgres-only feature with different RDBMSs doing it differently?

I tried some quick checks on Google and Wikipedia but couldn't find clear answers. There seem to be different SQL standards (for example SQL 2003, SQL 2008), but from what I can see, these don't cover object-relational syntax.
